Habitat for Humanity Northwest Harris County

The program is aimed at encouraging, promoting and assisting in the building and redevelopment of low-income housing in cypress-fairbanks, klein, spring and tomball school districts. The organization's purpose is accomplished through a privetely operated and financed program to sell such housing to low-income persons at or below actual cost utilizing non- interest-bearing mortgage loans. The organization has completed construction of 283 new homes since 1989 and transferred to qualified new low-income homeowners.

The program is established to operate a resale store in order to generate additional income and to extend the mission of the organization by providing low-cost donated materials for low-income homeowners to repair and improve their houses. The organization accepts donations of building materials, supplies, furniture and apppliances for the store and receives inventory from deconstructed homes where the donor pays the organization for deconstruction services and the organization retains usable items from the deconstructed homes.
